Nikias Chryssos‘ English-language horror film “Bloody Tennis” has secured several international deals, including to Shudder in the U.S., ahead of its world premiere at the Locarno Film Festival.

The other deals are for Australia (Umbrella Entertainment), Baltics (BestFilm.eu), Italy (Plaion Pictures), Japan (Extreme Film), Poland (9th Plan), and Scandinavia (Njutafilms).

U.S. rights were handled by CAA on behalf of Augenschein Sales, while Augenschein Sales sold the Australian rights directly. The Playmaker Munich closed the deals for Poland, the Baltics, Japan, Scandinavia and Italy on behalf of Augenschein Sales, and is handling the remaining open territories.
